February 17, 20242 yr I have a weird problem that has plagued my last 1-2 years. I've been using UnRAID since 2019 and never had any problems with the automatic update process until the last 4-5 (stable) releases. I've only followed the stable release and only followed the recommended update path. This is what haoppens: I make sure my plugins and dockers are updated I backup my flash drive using the standard UnRAID WebGUI, following the recommended guide I shut down all my dockers I click the "update OS" under Tools. So after the update is done and it says "Reboot to upgrade" I click on that. The update fails since it doesn't recognize the flash drive. I take out the flash drive, put it in my mac and run the Make bootable Mac script on the flash drive. Put the flash back on the server and reboot without a problem. I though my flash drive was getting worn out so I got a brand new flash drive, a Samsung FIT 64 Gb. and transferred my license after updating last time to 6.12.6. Everything has been running just fine since last update. So this morning I did the update to 6.12.8 and the exakt same thing happened again, requiring me to run the "make bootable" script on the flash for it to work. Any ideas as to what is going on?
February 17, 20242 yr Author Actually now my system won't boot at all, just getting errors like these, I updated to the latest BIOS of my motherboard, fiddle with settings to get it to work, no luck, reverted to an older bios, just won't work: Gonna try to restore from flash backup before the update to 6.12.8
February 17, 20242 yr Community Expert Flash drive is disconnecting, try a different port, ideally USB 2.0
February 17, 20242 yr Author After using the UnRAID USB creator to restore my 6.12.6 flash backup I am up and running again and can draw a sigh of relief. This was the worst update experience for me so far, don't really understand what went wrong but I guess I'm staying at 6.12.6 for now.
